Well hello there Everyone and a good Wednesday evening to you! You remember when I was sending out emails at all hours of the night last year. It’s not that I didn’t want to sleep. It was just I always am going to do my best to get these out to ya. So while not as late as some of those fun long days, apologies for a little later than usual send tonight. No binging Supernatural (I’m now on the second time) tonight. Just a busy day. So, without further ado, following are key Headlines, US Snapshots, US Vaccinations, Highlights, the “Good Stuff” as well as key Statistics, Vaccine and Treatment information, US Restrictions and the Back to Normal Index related to the novel coronavirus pandemic. For some words of wisdom, I share the inspiration of Anthony Joshua, who said: Wherever you get to is better than where you started. To stay on the road is a massive achievement. We started a year ago with the first case of coronavirus confirmed in the US. In some ways it is hard to believe it has been 12 months. But in others, if you are like me it seems at times like 12 years. We started out with I’m sure some concerns but not having any idea what was ahead. And as we have traveled down the road, smooth and purring along to start things began to change. We ran into sharp curves where we couldn’t see ahead, potholes that bounced us and shook our core, washouts that we are times didn’t think would let us get around, and storms so hard we couldn’t see ahead of us and wondering if we could make it.. So, we had to slow down, stop, ease our way forward. But we found a way to stay on the road, even when we may not have been able to see the lines. We found a way as best we could to pace ourselves, knowing that there would be days that would take every bit of our courage, strength and faith to just keep going. Wait for it …. But! We are still traveling. We are still overcoming. And we are still, somehow, someway, finding the map to keep us on the path. And when we do get to the light at the end, when we finally come out of the tunnel, when the storm begins to break and sunshine come through, when we get to where we want to be, we will look back and find comfort and strength in the journey we took and our ability to make it. So keep finding that inner strength, keep looking ahead not behind, keep counting on each other, and keep believing in yourself. Because, at the end it will be better than where we started . CVOB Website individual US State, US County, Global Trending Charts and Data as well as US Vaccinations, US Restrictions and our Communications Archive can be found at https://www.sunknighty.net/. Headlines Wednesday marks one year since the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed the first case of COVID- 19 in the US, and it wouldn't be until several months later that scientists identified the virus that caused COVID-19 in blood samples from people in various states as early as December 2019, and since the first confirmed case 365 days ago, more than 24.2 million people have tested positive, which means that approximately one in every 13 Americans have contracted the disease, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University. 1 There were 168,058 new cases of COVID-19 confirmed in the US on Tuesday, according to a real-time count kept by Johns Hopkins University, a daily case count that was far less than the country's all-time high of 298,031 newly confirmed infections on January 2. The US reported 4,409 deaths Wednesday, the highest number of daily COVID-19 fatalities on record, according to the COVID Tracking Project, and with 11 days remaining, the month is now the 2nd-most deadly month, as the seven-day average of daily deaths is 3,043. The COVID Tracking Project reported today that daily hospitalizations have seen a slight decrease over the last few days and is now at 122,700, and in the last week, no states have reported an increase in hospitalizations by 10% or more. The death rate among hospitalized Covid-19 patients in Los Angeles has nearly doubled in recent months, as health officials are seeing a “substantial increase in severity” among those sickened with the disease, with officials saying it does not mean the virus has become more virulent or that care in hospitals worsened during the surge, but rather because hospitals, facing capacity constraints, became more selective in determining which patients to admit. More than 16.5 million Covid-19 vaccine doses have been administered in the US, about 46% of the 36 million distributed, according to data published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention today, with at least 2.1 million people receiving both of the required shots. At least 144 cases of a variant first identified in the United Kingdom have been identified in 20 US states, according to data posted Wednesday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and to date, 60 countries across all six World Health Organization regions have reported either imported cases or community transmission of the strain - 10 more than a week ago, the agency said in a report released Wednesday. New findings from the National Institute for Communicable Diseases in South Africa released Tuesday suggest someone might be able to still get infected with the new variant first spotted in the country even if they've had Covid-19 before or have been vaccinated, with Penny Moore, the senior author of the study, saying "This is the first time I've been concerned about a variant partially evading the immune response and partially evading the vaccine." New research published late Tuesday provides reassuring evidence that people vaccinated will be protected against emerging new variants, with two teams testing two of the new mutations against blood taken from people who had received the full two-course dose of either the Moderna or the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, and finding that while the mutations in the new variants - one first seen in Britain, and another first identified in South Africa- did allow them to evade some of the immunity induced by vaccination, it was far from a complete escape. The World Health Organization is evaluating 15 vaccines and says it could list several of them for emergency use within weeks, according to a new guidance document published by agency on Wednesday. [See Vaccines – Global following for a list of candidates] Vaccine advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have scheduled an emergency meeting for next week to discuss progress in administering vaccine doses, safety, testing in children and studies on effectiveness, and there is also a time slot for an unspecified manufacturer to present. US President Joe Biden used his inaugural address Wednesday to reflect on the “winter of peril” challenge of containing the pandemic but struck a note of optimism about the future, saying "This is our historic moment of crisis and challenge, and unity is the path forward,” and then later signed a number of executive orders addressing the pandemic. [See special section Presidential Actions for more information] In her first statement as Director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Rochelle Walensky promised Wednesday that "healthier days lie ahead" - but getting there will require a rapid acceleration of Covid-19 testing, surveillance and vaccination, and that the agency is conducting a comprehensive review of all existing Covid- 19 guidance, which will be updated wherever needed. The United Nations health agency said today that 93,000 people died globally in the week ending January 17 - a record and a 9% rise over the previous week, but the number of new cases dropped 6%, with most of the decline in infections occurring in Europe, which registered a drop of 15% in the last seven day reporting period. A study commissioned by the United Kingdom Department of Health and Social Care has warned that the prevalence of coronavirus is at its highest since the peak of the first wave of the pandemic, adding that infections in England increased by 50% from early December, with one in 63 people infected, and Home Secretary Priti Patel said the high death toll and rate of hospital admissions mean that it is “far too early to speculate” about easing lockdown measures, adding they are in a “pivotal stage” in the vaccination effort but that the country has a “long way to go.” 2 Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger

  • Covid-19 Et Mobilisation Des Forces Armées En Europe Et Aux États-Unis
    NOTE DE RECHERCHE 5 novembre 2020 COVID-19 ET MOBILISATION DES FORCES ARMÉES EN EUROPE ET AUX ÉTATS-UNIS François DELERUE, Édouard JOLLY, Léa MICHELIS, Anne MUXEL, Florian OPILLARD et Angélique PALLE Chercheurs à l’IRSEM RÉSUMÉ La mobilisation des armées dans la gestion de la crise sanitaire liée à la Covid-19 participe à la lutte contre la pandémie. En Europe, les États les ont sollicitées surtout en soutien logistique et sanitaire, mais elles ont aussi, dans certains pays, participé à des tâches relevant de la sécurité publique (maintien de l’ordre ou contrôle des frontières). Cette note présente un premier état des lieux des missions qu’elles ont assumées auprès des populations civiles en comparant la nature des interventions menées, les effectifs déployés, et le dimensionnement des opérations, en France, en Allemagne, en Suisse, en Italie et aux États-Unis. Dans la période récente, le périmètre des mis- sions incombant aux armées s’est indéniablement élargi et celles-ci doivent réguliè- rement apporter, en appui des moyens civils, leur soutien et leurs compétences dans des situations de catastrophes naturelles, humanitaires et sanitaires. La pandémie de Covid-19 en est une nouvelle illustration. – n SOMMAIRE Introduction .................................................................................................................................................. 2 La gestion militaire de la crise sanitaire en France .................................................................................. 2 La mobilisation des forces armées

  • Vaccini, Pronti Gli Spazi Ma Per L’Italia Mancano Le Dosi
    Vaccini, pronti gli spazi ma per l’Italia mancano le dosi L’Italia rinasce con un fiore è la campagna vaccinale partita, anche nel resto d’Europa, il 27 dicembre 2020 con i primi vaccini somministrati agli operatori sanitari italiani. Da quella data molte cose sono cambiate. In primis il Governo, che ha scelto di lasciare le primule immaginate da Stefano Boeri solo sui materiali di comunicazione e di non dare corso alla costruzione degli spazi a forma di fiore nelle piazze d’Italia per ospitare le vaccinazioni. Il premier Mario Draghi ha cambiato anche l’assetto di gestione dell’emergenza Covid, con il ritorno dell’ingegner Fabrizio Curcio nel ruolo di Capo Dipartimento della Protezione Civile. Curcio, già a capo di CasaItalia, aveva già ricoperto lo stesso incarico dal 2015 al 2017. Il generale Francesco Paolo Figliuolo, in qualità di commissario per l’emergenza Covid al posto di Domenico Arcuri,ha più volte ribadito la necessità di utilizzare le strutture della Protezione civile per dare sostegno alle Regioni nella gestione del piano vaccinale. L’obiettivo del Generale è di arrivare a 500 mila somministrazioni di vaccini entro la fine di aprile 2021. Ad oggi, secondo i dati del Governo, in Italia sono 11 milioni le dosi di vaccini somministrate. Ma sono solo poco più di 3 milioni le persone ad aver ricevuto entrambe le dosi. Mancano i vaccini. Non mancano invece gli spazi per somministrarli. E non si tratta solo di caserme. Visto che, ad esempio, in Sicilia, unico caso in Italia nei giorni di Pasqua e Pasquetta ben 300 parrocchie hanno dato la disponibilità dei propri spazi per vaccinare oltre 4.000 anziani, con l’ausilio della rete di volontari sanitari e con un protocollo d’intesa ad hoc siglato tra la Regione Siciliana e la Cesi.
